Solution

The correct option is D night
Option A - A 'knight' is a man of high social position who is trained to fight as a soldier on a horse. A 'knight' can't be dark because there was no moon, thus option A is incorrect.
Option B - 'Nite' is an informal word used for 'night'. It is not preferable to use informal language here. Thus option B is incorrect.
Option C - 'Kight' doesn't exist as a word and is grammatically incorrect. Thus option C is incorrect.
Option D - 'Night' can be dark if there is no moon in the sky and hence we can use 'night' here. Thus option D is the correct answer.
'The night was dark as there was no moon.'
